The Labour leader is currently over immense pressure over his Brexit position and handling of Labour’s anti-Semitism crisis. Mr Corbyn has suggested he will remain neutral if a second EU membership referendum takes place whilst he is Prime Minister, angering many in his party who back a remain vote.

According to The Sunday Telegraph one shadow cabinet minister thinks Mr Corbyn is considering standing down from the leadership.

Speaking to the paper they said: “He does look as though he’s ready to pack it in”.

The frontbencher added “we have passed the high water mark of Corbynism” and suggested the Labour leaders allies are using the party conference in Brighton to “secure the succession”.

On Friday key allies of Mr Corbyn, including Momentum founder Jon Lansman, launched an audacious attempt to abolish the position of Labour deputy leader.

This would remove current holder Tom Watson, who has urged the leadership to take a toucher line on anti-Semitism and embrace remaining in the EU.

However on Saturday Mr Corbyn suggested a review into the deputy leadership position as a compromise.

Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph a shadow cabinet member described the developments as “an admission they think Jeremy is going” from Mr Corbyn’s allies.

They added: “They clearly think that Jeremy’s position is in peril, one way or another”.
